Travel Blogs Edition

Due to extended time with Entrecards, I haven’t perused my usual list of travel blogs very much. However, I do sift over the RSS feeds, and once in a while I’ll stop by to see what’s new. There are some interesting developments with the T-List, joining Twitter, and thus forming more of a community. I haven’t joined Twitter; I am buried in so many other social networks that if I join another I’ll never see my kids. Such things are so time-consuming.

Less Than a Shoestring, a real frugal travel blog, has a good post about little goodies to be found, free for travelers. Every penny counts, doesn’t it?

Kango also has the latest news on the Twitter-pated T-List. And they have changed their name to UpTake. I am not too fond of the change and have been irascibly vocal about it. I liked Kango and I thought it was memorable with the likes of eBay, Google, and Yahoo. But change it they did. Name change or not, this is an up-and-coming travel portal and I’m really looking forward to when they begin to include the northeastern United States in their listings. I think the travel world is needing a family-friendly portal such as this.
